A Few Ideas To Get You Started
Carefully add a small amount of Green Food Color at a time from a measuring spoon until desired color is obtained. For colored eggs, combine 1/4 teaspoon with 2 teaspoons distilled vinegar and 2/3 cup boiling water; dip eggs. Add Green Food Color with mint flavor when preparing candy, cake filling, or desserts. For shamrock punch, combine 4 cups iced tea, 1 (6 ounce) can frozen limeade, thawed, and 2 (12 ounce) cans pineapple juice. Add Green Food Color to desired shade.
